My User PageWould you mind semi-protecting my user page? Targeting it seems to be popular amongst IP vandals I revert on Huggle. Many thanks. Vicenarian (T · C) 02:54, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
ok.but the guy was blocked anyways. See here. AndrewrpTally-ho! 16:07, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
A favour to askHey J, I hate to bother you, but would you mind dialing down the protection on my user page from full to semi? I think that the furor has passed and full protection should no longer be necessary. Thanks again, t'shaelchat 19:43, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
This page needs semi-protection immediately... it's reported at RPP, but the vandalism is massive and ongoing. Thanks! Vicenarian (T · C) 19:52, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Shameless questionspamIt recently occurred to me to get the local timezones of various administrators that I've dealt with and know I can work with in the future, and to concentrate that information in one page instead of my memory. Because the relevant page is linked from my userpage, anyone will be able to find a list of the most useful admins. It so happens that you're the latest victim. If you feel like revealing your timezone (not exactly the most dangerous secret in the world), you can reply here, here or here (the latter by actually adding yourself to the table). If you object, simply reply here or here (be sure to specify if you're objecting to the concept itself, or just the timezone). Because this is shameless questionspam, thanks in advance for whatever option you choose. —LedgendGamer 20:42, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Question re:vandalismHi - I know this is an inappropriate edit, but does it really classify as vandalism? Would it be appropriate to use Huggle to remove it? Shiva (Visnu) 02:04, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
A Little Help?User:Delicious carbuncle has started a post on ANI about User:Allstarecho. I boldly closed the post and told both users to back away from each other and find their corners of Wiki. Something that User:Tanthalas39 (an involved admin) said as well, but couldn't enforce. Delicious carbuncle, instead of following the unenforceable advice of myself and Tanthalas39, he wants an "uninvolved admin" to tell him to back away from the dead horse and the ANI post and leave Allstarecho alone. Would you mind doing that? If you wish not to get in the middle, I will completely understand. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 02:18, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

This whole thing is a little absurd, but given that a handful of places that refer to it from this Metafilter piece say that the concept is only being promoted by Attack Attack!, the deleted Crabcore article might actually be a decent merge candidate. Would you mind restoring it to User:Mrzaius/sandbox/crabcore so that I can see if there's anything to be salvaged? 113.199.140.113 (talk) 07:19, 2 July 2009 (UTC) (User:Mrzaius - Just don't have time to log in.) OTRS permissionYou were the first name I recognized on the list. Could you confirm that I sent three forwarded permissions for three images?

Currently 3 users have listed difs and according to my opinion appears to be otherwise correctly filed. Note that the person the RFC-User is being filed on brought up the issue of whether this RFCU is appropriate at ANI here. I would add it to the candidate pages myself, but since I became involved by replying at the ANI discussion, I thought it would be better if someone completely unrelated listed it instead.

User name changeActually you were clear, I initially went with Spaceman Spiff, but then thought I'd check the SpacemanSpiff too, and I found that the two entries by that user are no longer in an article because the page has since become a redirect, so figured that would qualify in "no significant entries".

Very adept new user - can you take a glance?Hello J.Delanoy. I do a lot of new-user patrolling and welcoming, and I've noticed a new user, just created 7/4/09 but who seems very experienced, jumping right to welcome newbies, doing good reverts and posting to User:SuggestBot/Requests. Nothing vandelous, just curiously adept. Would you care to take a glance at contributions to be sure all is well? Hope I'm just paranoid.

Upload File ProblemWhen I was uploading some files today, I have noticed under the "other item" link under "Logo" the file upload window is smooshed over the right side. This was normally not the case. You would normally find the upload window centered or to the left. Is there anyway that you could fix that or let someone in Meta know and they could fix it. I am not sure if the right side smoosh problem is effecting all the upload links or just one. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 00:46, 9 July 2009 (UTC)

User Davejshep1984Hi there. I think you have been a bit harsh in blocking this user. What he has done is create an article about his local village football team, Donington on Bain Rovers FC, using a copy of the Derby County FC page as a template. He has then been editing his article, which at first look may appear to be vandalism, but is not. The article should be speedy deleted as being non-notable, but to ban the user for good faith but misguided edits is I think an excessive response. Regards WhaleyTim (talk) 15:58, 9 July 2009 (UTC) your comment User talk:Scorpio95I removed it since it appears to be misguided: the person added a genuine content, only it was an unreferenced opinion.

It is now a service that has sent emails to 1.6million UK users and has receieved feedback from over 325,000 of them. To me, this gives the people a right to know what it is in a clear and unambiguous way - ie Wikipedia. I am not the writer of it as you will see, but have been a user and feel it does deserve a place on Wikipedia. If your issue was that it was too 'advertising' in its style, fine, then force them to rewrite, but to just delete it seems a little harsh. Would you in your capacity have any suggestions about what they need to do next? Thanks in advance John ps, sorry should have logged in so you could see who I am. Have done now.

Counter-Vandalism AdviceHi, I am relatively new to Wikipedia, and am starting to get a feel for the way things run. I would like to get more involved in counteracting the high level of vandalism on this website. Currently, I am using Twinkle to help me get that job done. However, there has to be a more efficient way to detect and revert vandalism than staring at the recent changes list for hours on end. Do you have any tips on how to improve the speed and efficiency of my reverts? Saforcer (talk) 22:33, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
User talk:206.53.157.88Thanks — you'll see from the history that I seem to be dealing with a rather persistent IP editor here, rotating through various addresses. It started with a series of reversions that I did earlier today at the Wilson Goode article, where a series of IP edits were inserting a photo of Bozo the Clown, and then moved to this post of mine on User:Zyxw's talk page.

Confirmed, indef'd. — Rlevse • Talk • 02:45, 11 July 2009 (UTC) Vandalism events of this afternoonThis afternoon, we were supposed to be researching on the internet. It was then that a few of my classmates discovered that you can actually edit Wikipedia (!) To my dismay, some of them embarked upon a vandalism spree. This afternoon, you blocked Iamgoingtobeurfriend after various edits made to Chesterfield, see here for instance, plus one edit to Alien vs. Predator (film). They were actually sat two places away from me, and though I tried to stop them by returning to my place and attempting to revert their edits, I always got caught up in an edit conflict with further vandalism. I warned them that they would get blocked if they continued, but still they carried on and you blocked them. Another rogue editor in the room chose to use the school IP, which has been used to vandalise many times before. You blocked them for one year. Without blocking, these people would still be at large, for they ignored the warnings that were sent to them and ignored the 'you have new messages' bar. Though I did yell at them to stop, they did not. I warn that they may start again. I said that if they were to create other accounts for vandalism, they would just get blocked again and maybe get accused of sockpuppetry. They laughed at the term and went to tell everyone that I am an editor of Wikipedia. I wonder if incidents with editors and vandals in the same room happen often. So, I say thank you for blocking them, for they may have continued vandalising otherwise. Wikiert T S C 18:33, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
[Request to Restore Page] BITOSA BangaloreHi J, Thank you to give me opportunity to request you restore my deleted article [1]. I certainly appreciate you taking pains in maintaining world's largest encyclopedia nonsense free. Unfortunately, my article became a victim of the deletion policy. Kindly consider restoring it. The article is about our Alumni Association (BITOSA Bangalore - Birla Institute of Technology Old Students Association, Bangalore). The association is more than two decades old and it got established formally four years back. Like many existing alumni associations, ours is one such association of ex-students of India's prominent engineering college Birla Institute of Technology. It is neither a company nor an organization for making profits. Its member alumni can be found around the globe. And hence the article, which I wrote about it. The small article is just to introduce it to the world. You can verify by visiting its website [2]. I hope I don't need to give you any example from many alumni associations already existing in Wikipedia. I also hope that this article will get restored soon. Thank you in advance!

Some help,Hello, could you please warn the editor Victor9876 against making edits such as this? He won't heed any warnings otherwise. As far as I have been told, users are not allowed to do what this user was doing.— Dædαlus Contribs 23:42, 12 July 2009 (UTC)
(outdent) Just for the record, Daedalus969 warned Victor9876 about this here, at 01:14 (my time), 12 July 2009. At this time, Victor9876 has made no further edits to User talk:Carrt81, although discussion between Daedalus969 and Victor9876 continued regarding it and escalated. The warning was given. No further edits were made by Victor9876 to that talk page, although WP:AN/I has occurred since then. Daedalus969 then pasted a notice regarding the WP:AN/I thread here, indicating he knew it was being addressed. Regardless, Daedalus969 repeated a warning here, saying "if you do it again, I will report you for vandalism". Again here, "In fact, such acts are that of vandalism, as it falls under the category of section blanking. Do so again and I will report you." Then here, "I am informed of all I need to know. You are not allowed to do the edit noted above, period. I am currently seeking admin assistance regarding this behavior of yours." The back and forth continued and deteriorated. Then Daedalus969 posted a vandalism template warning about the same one instance of removing the talk page posting here, followed by a WP:NPA warning template regarding the intermediate dispute. Victor9876 removed the warnings from his talk page, and Daedalus969 then posted here, saying Victor9876 could remove his warnings from the page, "but just so you know, a warning of a regular user holds just as much power as an admin. If you fail to heed it, you will get blocked." After a couple more posts, Victor9876 removed all the posting from his talk page. Yet again, Daedalus969 came back and made a posting here, saying "Don't blank sections from Cart's talk page anymore, and we should be fine. You've had plenty warning, so if you do it again, I'm reporting you for vandalism." Another editor intervened, noting on Daedalus' talk page that things were on the edge of getting out of control and wanting to stop it before it did. Victor9876 replied on the same page here, saying "Let's move on. Please don't contact me anymore. Thank you!" and made no more posts to User talk:Daedalus969. Daedalus969 came back to User talk:Victor9876 once more, to say "You don't understand policy better than I do. If that were the case, you wouldn't have vandalized that user's talk page by removing that section against policy. Secondly, you have no right to kick me off this page..." No further posts were made on either user talk page, but Daedalus969 then came to this talk page and made the above postings. Essentially, Victor9876 received no less than eight warnings for the one incident, which he did not repeat at all following the first warning, responded to increasingly assertive posts regarding it, was taken to WP:AN/I about it, and then the request by Daedalus969 came here, again requesting intervention, despite the fact that Victor9876 did not repeat the action. This to me is a blatant case of beating a dead horse and borderline contentious WP:POINT violations. I hope this will now stop and everyone go back to business as usual.

Sorry for the reversionI am sorry for the quick undetailed(?) reversion at Lisle High School. I'll be the first to admit it looked fishy, but I found a few sources that confirmed the edit.

LonelyBeacon (talk) 01:25, 13 July 2009 (UTC) It seems that while I was busy figuring out how to warn this person (it was my first time on WP, so it took a while), you went straight ahead with blocking him. If you want to speedy-delete or take other admin action on his talk page, by all means please do so. I'm not sure what's appropriate in this situation on WP. Neat trick with the banner-on-edit, btw.

Thanks in advance.--Yannismarou (talk) 21:39, 13 July 2009 (UTC) How was I edit warring?? Please elaborate on that, since my edits were 70% accepted. Your problem is that I changed the passage "greek tribe of chaonians" to "greek-speaking tribe of chaonians". The article's source said those exact words "greek-speaking", and curiously you interpreted that as greek-speaking=greek.--Sarandioti (talk) 10:08, 14 July 2009 (UTC) Belated thanks.......for taking care of minor trouble on my talk page.

Can you take a look at this AfD?It shouldn't be an AfD, the page needs protection/semi-protection to prevent soapboxing and political propoganda, and I think the AfD needs to be speedy closed, as it's a worthy enough subject (it's a notable place!)

M♠ssing Ace 14:12, 15 July 2009 (UTC) Spam LinksMy apologies J.delanoy. I was unaware what I was doing was spam since there are links to myspaces as well as other user pages for artists. I personally don't see how those are different, but maybe you could clarify? If external links to media sites are not allowed, then shouldn't all of them be deleted? Not trying to be a pain, I just think the rule should be a definite yes or no, instead of some sites being allowed, and others not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrmike110 (talk • contribs) 15:05, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

Sarandioti, Pakapshem, and a suspicious IPHello, I have recently become involved in a dispute with these two users at Epirotes. Because the topic is contentious, I have opened a discussion on the talkpage. I thought the matter settled when I brought a couple of sources to back what I'm saying, but then, an IP editor popped out of nowhere and promptly undid my edit [12]. This IP has popped up just at the right time in the past [13], whenever I happened to be involved in a dispute with I Pakapshem [14], specifically, on June 8 at Sarande, Gjirokaster and Paramythia. Since he has been warned that he is one step away from an indef block because of his disruptive behavior, I wouldn't be at all surprised if it were him. Do you think this is sufficient to request a checkuser? What should I do? Since this article is contentious, I was wondering if you would be willing to semi-protect the article from IP editors until such disputes have been settled. There is nothing more frustrating than starting a discussion only to be swiftly reverted by an IP. Regards, --Athenean (talk) 18:06, 15 July 2009 (UTC) Athenean's sources were totally unreliable. Check for yourself, before intervening. And now as usual whenever he cant prove his claims he is asking help from admins. Use checkuser, but when Athenean's accusations are proved wrong then block him, since this is the 5-6 time he accuses me without any proof.--Sarandioti (talk) 18:20, 15 July 2009 (UTC) This is the sixth section titled Sarandioti opened by Athenean accusing me or someone else , and asking checkuser, so please use checkuser on me, i pakapshem and anyone else --Sarandioti (talk) 18:25, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
Again false accusations by you Athenean. And you still havent managed to prove why should the additions be removed. Just 2 completely unreliable sources, of which 1 was greek while the other started by saying that there are 280,000 greeks in albania. Ironically, in the 2009 elections in Albania, the greek minority party was voted by ~30,000 people. While, the definition of the Epirote clarifies the issue "every native inhabitant of EPirus, is an Epirote", you want to identify Epirote with Greek Epirote. JDelanoy you are welcome to run as many checkuser tests as you want. --Sarandioti (talk) 19:37, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
The discussion is over and you failed to prove ANYTHING athenean, so stop trying to give that impression. If you don't like the current state of the article, start a new one Greek Epirotes, and there you can add only greek epirotes. But in an article regarding all Epirotes:Albanians, Greeks, Vlachs, you have no right to add only greek epirotes.--Sarandioti (talk) 20:37, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
I would, but Athenean here cant stop accusing other users, and giving false impressions. I have to clarify issues every time, he does that. --Sarandioti (talk) 20:42, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
@ J. Delanoy, to me here it seems that Athenean is not voicing concerns but making false accusations and assuming bad faith when he can't back up his claims or get his way, by complaining to admins and stirring up trouble for no good reason. --I Pakapshem (talk) 20:54, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

Inapropriate reversalHi, this is actually an inappropriate edit - the external link referred to was published this week by an independent magazine and gives additional information on the site. Please review, and undo your "undo" for Suite101.com -- http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:199.60.221.253&redirect=no —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.60.221.253 (talk) 01:20, 16 July 2009 (UTC) Advice on how to handle suspected vandalism.I've been a newbie vandalism for a few days now and would like you opinion on how to handle a case like Tamil people. I originally reverted because the same IP kept removing large sections and making potentially contentious changes with no references and no edit summary. The changes s/he is making could very well be good faith by someone not familiar with Wikipedia policies. Am I justified in continuing to revert s/his reverts (which sounds perverted) and then report s/him when he reaches stage 4? Or should I ask for semi-protection for the page? Or just let them stand until for now? The main contentious claim s/he is inserting is referring to Tamils as terrorists without any references which if I understand the policy correctly is a POV no-no. Thanks for any help you can give. --Sophitessa (talk) 02:10, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
IP disruption in EpirotesSorry to bother you again, but the IP disruption in that article shows no signs of stopping [16]. --Athenean (talk) 21:55, 15 July 2009 (UTC) I don't usually agree with ip editors, but this time athenean is the one responsible. What Athenean refers to as disruption, is the following: He added that all Epirotes are greeks, when he saw that he had no reliable sources for the removal of famous Albanian Epirotes. Athenean continues his edit-warring, AND has made 3 reverts, and numerous edits that contain edit-warring. Check it here. [17] --Sarandioti (talk) 22:02, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
So you have NOT edit-warred or reverted? Let's see [18], [19], [20], [21], [22] . And no I am not wikiharrassing you.--Sarandioti (talk) 22:17, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
How exactly did I revert? I have ADDED text(which was accepted by Facturious eventually as I accepted part of his additions)It is called CONSENSUS. The rest is the usual conspiracy theories. I am getting used to checkuser, so feel free to ask for checkuser AGAIN. --Sarandioti (talk) 22:14, 16 July 2009 (UTC) I will stop commenting here, ask checkuser again if you want Athenean or anything else. AGAIN and AGAIN you will be proved WRONG. --Sarandioti (talk) 22:22, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Over the past two days a single editor has more or less re-written the article, dumping some of the text and all of the images, (including, it has to be said, one of my own) without any reference or explanation and replacing them with their own. While accepting the fact that there is a lot of good new material the new text contains sentences (and headings) such as :'Our Company and brands', 'This pioneering spirit had led us to look always further', 'And, most of all, New Holland is the innovative, dynamic and smart partner, people who cultivate a new idea of agriculture can always rely on.'

The film was brought to my attention, but was gone before I could look in. However, I was informed that the entire deleted article consisted of just one sentence: "Black Noon is an American television movie directed by Bernard L. Kowalski and broadcast in 1971 by ABC as a segment of its Movie of the Week series." I thought it best to contact you and invite you to visit User:MichaelQSchmidt/sandbox/Black_Noon. The new version is in its formative stages. I already sourced that it was a CBS product, and not one from ABC... and can show it being commercally aired over an 8-year period. More is in the works. With my own attempt being something different from the one deleted, I wish to ask is it prefered procedure to request undelete of the former and then overwrite with my content (when ready), or if it would serve to simply move mine to article space when ready.

I've worked for ~20 years at what has /got to be/ a notable software company in the US (founded in 1978), with infrastructural (data processing) software used by the world's largest companies in conjunction with databases, data warehousing, mainframe and COBOL migrations, flat files, etc. IRI released the first commercial sorting software off the mainframe, and is the only company with flat-file and data-model based test data generation, handling bulk XML and LDIF file conversions, encrypting files at the field level, and so on. There are plenty of third-party product reviews and industry references, but I'm getting speedy deletions despite neutral tone and content, while competitors and lesser-known ISVs with weaker postings remain. Bottom line is that we believe it's past time a Wikipedia article was done on CoSort and/or the company behind it, and thus the desire for Wikipedia insider help. We would like to hire someone like you (or someone you'd refer) who will comply with Wikipedia policies and carry the clout that seems to be needed. Apologies if what I've said comes across the wrong way, but I've gotten a bit frustrated and need help. We're not looking for a puff piece, just an appropriately encyclopedic entry in Wikipedia for a notable software company. Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jtree09 (talk • contribs) 21:40, 28 July 2009 (UTC)
CheckUserAs an admin, shouldn't you have access to that anyway? Thank you for the assistance. --Drr-darkomen (talk) 01:34, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
Latin King pageI have a message that I did a unconstructive edit to the Latin Kings page, how so? It is obvious that New York based Latin Kings are writing lies all over that page. Latin King started in Chicago and they're the ones with the say so not New York. Please explain how it was unconstructive when I have the source of most of the history from chicagogangs.org a website ran by an ex-gang member who then became a gang unit officer and is now running the website. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.44.91.74 (talk) 06:28, 29 July 2009 (UTC) HeyHmm. Well, from one of the answers to the questions: "In that case, I think that quietly running a checkuser and/or contacting the user privately if necessary would be the best way to handle it. " Under what circumstances would you quietly run a checkuser without letting the sockpuppet user know? It is my bad for not asking this before voting... I shall consider changing my vote after you reply. BrianY (talk) 05:03, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
CAN or COULDHi. I guess it is very important to write the exact speech MJ daugther did in the Service. WIKIPEDIA is considered the most accurate source all over the world. So, I do insist: Paris Jackson said: The Best father you CAN ever imagine. It will remain for the history.

RequestIf you don't mind, could you please delete Thundergroup? I've reverted the removal of the speedy template at least 6 times. Thanks. :) --javért stargaze 18:39, 30 July 2009 (UTC) Can you take a look at this page? One user was blocked for continuously adding junk (pictures of a chimp etc) and being reverted by a few of us. Now another with a very similar name is making some possible BLP vios and adding possibly copyrighted images. -SpacemanSpiffCalvin‡Hobbes 18:41, 30 July 2009 (UTC) HelpI noticed that you reverted a vandalism edit on the Brimstone page. I have been trying to keep up with these constant vandals but can not be watching at all times. They seem to be having a field day writing blatant vandalism, I correct one and then there are three more. I'm not sure how exactly to do warnings, although I am not an admin either and have no power. Is there any way you could help out in protecting this page? If you look through the edit history you will see what I mean. Here's hoping you can help out. RingWars2007 (talk) 00:00, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
Please take a look at User:MichaelQSchmidt/sandbox/Black Noon. The original unsourced one-sentence stub that was prodded and deleted has gone through some major changes... including showing it being commercially aired over at least an eleven-year period and the film now being properly attributed to CBS... not ABC. Because of the errors and lack of sourcing in the original article, I have no disagreement with the original prod nor with the deletion, but I'd like to return it to main space and wanted your input. Thank you, MichaelQSchmidt (talk) 00:41, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Possible Range Block?WP:TVS has been having ALOT of vandalism from sockpuppets of indef blocked User:Dingbat2007. Luna Santin did a checkuser and found several other socks (all blocked by Enigmaman), but also found the range the socks and IP edits are coming from....65.49.128.0/17. With edits like these that are coming fresh off a 31 hour block, would it be possible to do a range block? It would help out alot and probably wouldn't cause much collateral damage. - NeutralHomer • Talk • 02:10, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
Thanks!Thanks for the revert on my talk page just now! I was going to award you this months ago, but forgot.
How did he sneak that one in?i though the filter wouldn't allow swear words in names. HalfShadow 18:13, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
